The solution turned out to be really simple (for small tables at least - less
fun if you have hundreds of pages!). Just use:
\defineconversion[Contd][~,{ (cont’d)},{ (cont’d)},{ (cont’d)},{ (cont’d)},{
(cont’d)},
{ (cont’d)},{ (cont’d)},{
(cont’d)},{ (cont’d)},{ (cont’d)},
{ (cont’d)},{ (cont’d)},{
(cont’d)},{ (cont’d)},{ (cont’d)},
{ (cont’d)},{ (cont’d)},{
(cont’d)},{ (cont’d)},{ (cont’d)} ]
\setupfloatsplitting[conversion=Contd]
This results in "Table 1 My Long table", "Table 1 (cont’d) My Long table" and
so on.
